Thompson, a five-star recruit out of Grant High School in Sacramento,
rated as the No. 4 overall prospect in the country by Rivals, originally committed to California earlier this month before becoming disillusioned when the man who was recruiting him, Cal assistant Tosh Lupoi, moved on to Washington.

Thompson then made it clear he could reverse field and opened the door for Oregon, Washington and select others (depending on which report one believe).

When Oregon landed Armstead, out of Pleasant Grove High School in Elk Grove, Calif., many felt Thompson would be next because the pair had discussed playing together.

But Armstead is heading to Oregon while Thompson has reportedly chosen UW.
